A strong opening, some great scenes and a stylish feel will keep you hooked, but it doesn't ever become the cinematic classic - or Tarantino film - it seems to want very much to be.&dash; RTÉ (Ireland) - EDIT

The documentary is stunning and is excellently edited; cleverly crafted montages of news reports intercut with footage of Whitney provide social context and background in a gripping way while also highlighting her insane talent.&dash; RTÉ (Ireland) - EDIT

Trying to accommodate eight big characters is no mean feat, and character development does suffer as a result, but as an ensemble they gel really well together and there is never a dull moment.&dash; RTÉ (Ireland) - EDIT

It may be named Black Panther, but the film is very much an ensemble piece with enough action and social commentary to carve out a place as one of Marvel's better standalone offerings.&dash; RTÉ (Ireland) - EDIT

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri will make you feel deeply, laugh loudly and think hard, often in the space of one scene. It is a triumph and sees writer and director Martin McDonagh at his absolute best.&dash; RTÉ (Ireland) - EDIT

Despite its flaws, Daddy's Home 2 is extremely watchable and family friendly, with the holiday setting sure to awaken your festive side, but it won't deliver a Christmas movie miracle.&dash; RTÉ (Ireland) - EDIT

The costume and effects departments play an absolute blinder, but it's [Bill] Skarsgard's manic energy and presence that brings a level of unease and intensity to proceedings that is just incredible.&dash; RTÉ (Ireland) - EDIT

At no point do you feel like you really get to know Whitney Houston as more than an extremely talented, driven but troubled artist. You do, however, begin to understand just where it all went wrong for her.&dash; RTÉ (Ireland) - EDIT

In its best moments, it has all the charisma and eccentricity of a Coen Brothers film, but it never quite gets to that point of genius, and the potential for laugh-out-loud comedy is often missed.&dash; RTÉ (Ireland) - EDIT

An animated film about puppies, babies and sibling rivalry, with the genius comic timing of Alec Baldwin -- on paper it sounds like a sure thing, but it's never as good as the sum of its parts.&dash; RTÉ (Ireland) - EDIT

Personal Shopper's title may sell it as something vacuous but it is a beguiling and intriguing psychological thriller, brilliantly executed by the winning partnership of director Olivier Assayas and star Kristen Stewart.&dash; RTÉ (Ireland) - EDIT

The film was clearly built by people who love Batman (and LEGO obviously); the world is so richly filled with nods to his beginnings, his many iterations and the plots of some of his most memorable adventures.&dash; RTÉ (Ireland) - EDIT

A vibrant, candy-coloured world full of cutesy-but-strong characters that embody happiness and secrete a zest for life, it's the kind of film young children should be exposed to.&dash; RTÉ (Ireland) - EDIT

Great kids' films will always have something there for the adults but there is no appeal here. Children may get lost in a sense of wonder at the incredibly cute Elliott, but there are better films out there that would be worth picking up instead.&dash; RTÉ (Ireland) - EDIT
